A bouncing ball grows and speeds up each time it hits the surrounding circle.

Bouncing Ball Simulation

Python simulation featuring a dynamically interactive bouncing ball. The simulation demonstrates a ball that bounces, grows in size, and accelerates each time it hits the boundary of a surrounding circle, showcasing basic principles of physics and object interaction within a defined environment.

Key Features

• Collision Detection: The simulation detects collisions between the ball and the circular boundary.
• Dynamic Response: Post-collision, the ball increases in size, and the speed of its movement accelerates.
• Gravity Effect: The simulation includes a gravity effect influencing the ball's movement.
